It is a sad day when even the Lancet – a medical journal – is so anti-Bush and anti the Iraq war that they publish political oriented papers that, regardless of the right, wrongs or accuracies of the paper, have no right to be in a medical journal.

I am not suprised however, as the British media, especially the British Bias Corp, but even even right of centre newspapers such as the Telegraph keep up an unrelenting antagonism to all things American (except Hollywood).
